default to secondary flash.

Figure 264 boot set-default command defaulting to secondary flash

Booting the active management module from the current default flash

Use the reload command to boot the active management module from the current default flash

(You can change the default flash with the boot set-default command. See “Setting the

default flash for boot” (page 475).) Switchover occurs if redundancy is enabled and the standby

management module is in standby mode. If redundancy is disabled or the standby management

module is not present, the reload command boots the system.

NOTE: The reload command is a "warm" reboot; it skips the Power on Self Test routine.

Syntax

reload <cr>

Boots (warm reboot) the active management module. Switchover to the standby management

module occurs if management module redundancy is enabled. If redundancy is disabled or if

there is no standby management module, the reload command boots the system.

NOTE: If the running config file is different from the stored config file, you are prompted to

save the config file. The reload at/after versions of this command do not display a prompt

to save configuration file changes: the changes are lost on the scheduled reload.
